Unfortunately many older properties are often restored with inappropriate, cement-based materials. These materials can prevent your home from being able to 'breathe', resulting in a build-up of moisture.
Similar to Lime Render, Lime Plaster helps to manage moisture in older properties. It is also more 'flexible' than modern methods, meaning it allows for movement.
A traditional method of finishing interior walls, lath and plaster involves squeezing lime plaster between narrow strips of wood, or laths. Historically, the lime plaster contained horse hair to help hook onto the laths.
As with lime plastering and rendering, Limecrete flooring helps to insulate and manage moisture in older properties. Using this sympathetic approach prevents moisture being pushed into surrounding walls, which can then result in further issues.
